The Mana World Forums

Came up in in-game conversation earlier, with different opinions about whether it would count under the botting rule. So I thought I'd ask for a rules clarification.

1 player with 2 characters, playing both at the same time. Attacks a mouboo or snake in one window, then while waiting for the combat to finish switches to the other and goes attacking/herb gathering/chattering.
I expect that to be fine, as long as the player is actually watching both windows. Obviously such a player isn't going to fail the bot-test, but is it within the spirit of the game?

i don't know, but I think it is lame

Without two accounts going at once, there can't be item banks.

Yes, I understand why people do this, I have never done it myself, and I never had a desire to do so. I thought that the inventory limit was a boundary that was an additional challenge, it forces you "clean house" of the items that you can easily obtain, and horde the more valuable items. I just find the concept...or implementation, of using multiple players at one time to be a lazy work-around and not in the spirit of "The Mana World"

I have two so that I get one archer and one fighter. One can sit and heal without potions while the other is fighting.
ObNot-Spodding-Honest: originally they were because I needed a male and a female for graphics development.
